You might also want to check out Five Peaks GSD. Elaine has a litter from Roy & Olivia coming up and they should be a nice deep red/black color.

Hello not sure if you have found a breeder yet, but we are enjoying working with our breeder for a future pup! here is a facebook page with many pictures and there is a link to the site. We wanted a red and black as well!

Hi Golson,
I too am so sorry for the rudeness you have experienced here. Sometimes this forum is more like a shark tank than a puppy place.

Let he without sin cast the first stone.........

Lots of great black and reds out there in the German Showlines but they are expensive. If you don't mind my asking, what is your price range?

If you are not in the GSL price range (don't feel bad, not many of us are!), you might look for an outcross or smaller breeder. The ones out there who advertise as "World Class" are very pricey and you can find a wonderful shepherd for around 1000.00 if you look carefully.

PM me if you would like some suggestions or if you would like to keep your price range private. I have some possibilites for you to consider depending on how much you have to spend. :-)
AND YES.......Truth of it is that health is most important....find healthy parents and you have better chance of finding healthy pups..but beautiful ones too!

Good luck in your search. There are nice people on here too....who speak as they would like to be spoken to and don't judge people.

It was an un-pleasent experience and my family is just now getting over this after 8 years. Very hard for a grown man to take your loving puppy to be put a sleep. Very hard.........Some people might wonder why I did this but many know that at the time the medication was a lifetime event for the dog and very expensive. I felt it too much for the dog to put him through all this for his whole life....Enough said.

Well I am looking to replace my last GSD which had a great red pigment to her and plan on naming him the same name "Blitz".....

Can someone help me find a deep red GSD for both companionship and protection? I live here in Huntsville Alabama and willing to pay for shipping.

Thank you everyone.......greg

Although I am not anywhere near Alabama, I just wanted to send my condolences after all the rude comments. You made a VERY difficult decision, and one can not blame you for not having the funds at the time, or the heart to put the dog through a life of disease. Unfortunately, I can not point you in the right direction for a dog as I am not familiar with breeders near you, but the advise I can give is find a breeder who gets their health certifications on their dogs, and strong strable temperments. Since you are looking for a very special dog, I would try to stay local so that you can meet the parents, and really get to know the breeder. Good luck!

Black and reds are almost all he deals with. Pricey little pups, but their pedigrees are pretty good and they have a health guarantee for up to a year.

It is a large commercial breeder though, so you could probably find equal quality for less if you're in no rush.

To Golson (OP) I have one of these Dogs (Fleischerheim). YOu can see her pics in my avatar and profile. I think she is beautiful and I have been happy with my experience with this breeder.

Good Luck

Thank You for your moderation!!

My dog is west German show line, and he is pretty black/red, not to mention, has a great temperament, everything a GSD is supposed to be. I got him from a breeder in Wisconsin, who breeds this line. She does ship and is reasonable with prices. You can PM me if interested. Good luck!
